The Glory of Taiwan: Chien Ming Wang

   Five years ago, peoples in Taiwan were crazy about the baseball. Do you know why? The reason is that Chien- Ming Wang began shining at Major League. Because Chien- Ming Wang played well in America, the baseball has become more and more popular in Taiwan. As a big fan of the baseball, I’m going to introduce something about our glory of Taiwan.

   In 2006, 2007, Chien- Ming Wang was one of the best pitchers in Major League. Chien- Ming Wang won 19 games in both years and the best winning percentage.Nevertheless, in 2008, 2009, Wang got the right foot injury and the shoulder injury. In the end of the 2009 season, the Yankee didn’t offer the contract for Wang.


   Fortunately, in 2010, the Washington Nations signed Wang and predicted Wang could come back in the middle season, but Wang’s rehabilitation didn’t in the good condition. As a result of poor rehabilitation condition, Wang didn’t show up in 2010 season.

   After the two years hard time, Wang is back. Although Wang isn’t in the best condition, he is looking more and more like the pitcher who won 19 games twice in the Yankee. On Monday, Wang made the longest game after the surgery of his pitching shoulder. Wang gave up three runs and six hits, didn’t walk a batter and struck out fine in 6 2-3 innings. I am glad to see Wang’s come back and believe that Wang will create a outstanding records in Major league. Ps. Wang’s final pitch in this season is On this Sunday 1a.m. let us cheer on Chien- Ming Wang
